Kettlebell Deficit RDL

step by step guide:

  1. Pick up a kettlebell and stand on a step, a ledge, or a stack of textbooks.

  2. Keep a soft bend in your knees, and push your hips backwards as you lower the kettlebell down towards the ground. Once you feel a big stretch in the back of your thighs, stand back up to the start position.

  3. Make sure you keep your back flat during this exercise.

Common mistakes:

  1. Bending your knees too much. This will take tension off of the hamstrings which defeats the purpose of the exercise.

  2. Rounding your back. Don’t go so low that your back rounds significantly. Keep the muscles in your low back tight on the way up and on the way down.
